But Farber is certain he’ll have the last laugh. He’s ne f a small but grwing number f American veterinarians (兽医) nw practicing “hlistic” medicine-cmbining traditinal Western treatments with acupuncture, chirpractic (按摩疗法) and herbal medicine.Farber, a graduate f Clrad State University, started ut as a mre cnventinal veterinarian. He became interested in alternative treatments 20 years ag when he suffered frm terrible back pain. He tried muscle-relaxing drugs but fund little relief. Then he tried acupuncture, an ancient Chinese practice, and was amazed that he imprved after tw r three treatments. What wrked n a veterinarian seemed likely t wrk n his patients. S, after studying the techniques fr a cuple f years, he began ffering them t pets.Leigh Tindale’s dg Charlie had a serius heart cnditin. After Charlie had a heart attack, Tindale says, she was prepared t put him t sleep, but Farber’s treatments eased her dg’s suffering s much that she was able t keep him alive fr an additinal five mnths. And Priscilla Dewing reprts that her hrse, Nappy, “mves mre easily and rides mre cmfrtably” after a chirpractic adjustment.Farber is certain that the hlistic apprach will grw mre ppular with time, and if the past is any indicatin, he may be right: Since 1982, membership in the American Hlistic Veterinary Medical Assciatin has grwn frm 30 t ver 700. “Smetimes it surprises me that it wrks s well,” he says. “I will d anything t help an animal. That’s my jb.”24. What d sme f Farber’s cwrkers think f him?A. He’s dd.B. He’s strict.C. He’s brave.D. He’s rude.25. Why did Farber decide t try acupuncture n pets?A. He was trained in it at university.B. He was inspired by anther veterinarian.C. He benefited frm it as a patient.D. He wanted t save mney fr pet wners.26. What des paragraph 3 mainly talk abut?A. Steps f a chirpractic treatment.B. The cmplexity f veterinarians’ wrk.C. Examples f rare animal diseases.D. The effectiveness f hlistic medicine.27. Why des the authr mentin the American Hlistic Veterinary Medical Assciatin?A. T prve Farber’s pint.B. T emphasize its imprtance.C. T praise veterinarians.D. T advcate animal prtectin.CIs cmprehensin the same whether a persn reads a text nscreen r n paper? And are listening t and viewing cntent as effective as reading the written wrd when cvering the same material? The answers t bth questins are ften “n”. The reasns relate t a variety f factrs, including reduced cncentratin, an entertainment mindset (心态) and a tendency t multitask while cnsuming digital cntent.When reading texts f several hundred wrds r mre, learning is generally mre successful when it’s n paper than nscreen. A large amunt f research cnfirms this finding. The benefits f print reading particularly shine thrugh when experimenters mve frm psing simple tasks — like identifying the main idea in a reading passage — t nes that require mental abstractin — such as drawing inferences frm a text.The differences between print and digital reading results are partly related t paper’s physical prperties. With paper, there is a literal laying n f hands, alng with the visual gegraphy f distinct pages. Peple ften link their memry f what they’ve read t hw far int the bk it was r where it was n the page.But equally imprtant is the mental aspect. Reading researchers have prpsed a thery called “shallwing hypthesis (假说)”. Accrding t this thery, peple apprach digital texts with a mindset suited t scial media, which are ften nt s serius, and devte less mental effrt than when they are reading print.Audi (音频) and vide can feel mre engaging than text, and s university teachers increasingly turn t these technlgies — say, assigning an nline talk instead f an article by the same persn. Hwever, psychlgists have demnstrated that when adults read news stries, they remember mre f the cntent than if they listen t r view identical pieces.Digital texts, audi and vide all have educatinal rles, especially when prviding resurces nt available in print. Hwever, fr maximizing learning where mental fcus and reflectin are called fr, educatrs shuldn’t assume all media are the same, even when they cntain identical wrds.28. What des the underlined phrase “shine thrugh” in paragraph 2 mean?A. Seem unlikely t last.B. Seem hard t explain.C. Becme ready t use.D. Becme easy t ntice.29. What des the shallwing hypthesis assume?A. Readers treat digital texts lightly.B. Digital texts are simpler t understand.C. Peple select digital texts randmly.D. Digital texts are suitable fr scial media.30. Why are audi and vide increasingly used by university teachers?A. They can hld students' attentin.B. They are mre cnvenient t prepare.C. They help develp advanced skills.D. They are mre infrmative than text.31. What des the authr imply in the last paragraph?A. Students shuld apply multiple learning techniques.B. Teachers shuld prduce their wn teaching material.C. Print texts cannt be entirely replaced in educatin.D. Educatin utside the classrm cannt be ignred.DIn the race t dcument the species n Earth befre they g extinct, researchers and citizen scientists have cllected billins f recrds. Tday, mst recrds f bidiversity are ften in the frm f phts, vides, and ther digital recrds. Thugh they are useful fr detecting shifts in the number and variety f species in an area, a new Stanfrd study has fund that this type f recrd is nt perfect. “With the rise f technlgy it is easy fr peple t make bservatins f different species with the aid f a mbile applicatin,” said Barnabas Daru, wh is lead authr f the study and assistant prfessr f bilgy in the Stanfrd Schl f Humanities and Sciences. “These bservatins nw utnumber the primary data that cmes frm physical specimens (标本), and since we are increasingly using bservatinal data t investigate hw species are respnding t glbal change, I wanted t knw: Are they usable?”Using a glbal dataset f 1.9 billin recrds f plants, insects, birds, and animals, Daru and his team tested hw well these data represent actual glbal bidiversity patterns.“We were particularly interested in explring the aspects f sampling that tend t bias (使有偏差) data, like the greater likelihd f a citizen scientist t take a picture f a flwering plant instead f the grass right next t it,” said Daru.Their study revealed that the large number f bservatin-nly recrds did nt lead t better glbal cverage. Mrever, these data are biased and favr certain regins, time perids, and species. This makes sense because the peple wh get bservatinal bidiversity data n mbile devices are ften citizen scientists recrding their encunters with species in areas nearby. These data are als biased tward certain species with attractive r eye-catching features.What can we d with the imperfect datasets f bidiversity?“Quite a lt,” Daru explained. “Bidiversity apps can use ur study results t infrm users f versampled areas and lead them t places — and even species — that are nt well-sampled. T imprve the quality f bservatinal data, bidiversity apps can als encurage users t have an expert cnfirm the identificatin f their upladed image.”32. What d we knw abut the recrds f species cllected nw?A. They are becming utdated.B. They are mstly in electrnic frm.C. They are limited in number.D. They are used fr public exhibitin.33. What des Daru’s study fcus n?A. Threatened species.B. Physical specimens.C. Observatinal data.D. Mbile applicatins.34. What has led t the biases accrding t the study?A. Mistakes in data analysis.B. Pr quality f upladed pictures.C. Imprper way f sampling.D. Unreliable data cllectin devices.35. What is Daru’s suggestin fr bidiversity apps?A Review data frm certain areas.B.

Thankfully, there was a lng queue (队列) still waiting t bard the bus. Gunter parked the taxi behind the bus, turned arund, and lked at me with a big smile n his face. "We made it," he said.Just then I realised that I had zer cash in my wallet. I flashed him an aplgetic smile as I pulled ut my Prtuguese bankcard.

A feeling f helplessness washed ver me as I saw the bus queue thinning ut.At this mment, Gunter pinted twards the waiting hall f the bus statin. There, at the entrance, was a cash machine.
